Few-body approach to structure of bar{K}-nuclear quasi-bound states

Structure of light antikaon-nuclear quasi-bound states, which consist of an antikaon $(\bar{K}=K^-,~\bar{K}^0)$ and a few nucleons $(N=p,~n)$ such as $\bar{K}NN$, $\bar{K}NNN$, $\bar{K}NNNN$ and $\bar{K}NNNNNN$ systems, is studied with full three- to seven-body calculations. Employing a realistic $\bar{K}N$ potential based on the chiral SU(3) effective field theory with the SIDDHARTA constraint, we show that the central nucleon densities of these systems increases when the antikaon is injected, by about factor of two at maximum. The $\bar{K}NNNN$ system shows the largest central density, about 0.74 fm$^{-3}$ even with the phenomenological $\bar{K}N$ potential, which are not as high as those suggested in previous studies with approximate treatments of the few-body systems. We find the spin of the ground state of the $\bar{K}NNNNNN$ system depends on the strength of the $\bar{K}N$ attraction. Thus, the quantum number of the ground state can be another constraint on the $\bar{K}N$ interaction.
